A New Way to Calm Down - Just Look at Meat

A steak could be a good way to help your hubby de-stress and calm down after a hard days work, experts said.

Psychologist Frank Kachanoff said the belief that a hunk of red meat would prompt snarling behaviour probably dates back to our early ancestors who had to hunt wild animals for food.

Reducing Meat to 3 Meals a Week can Protect Against Early Death
A recent University of Oxford study has pointed out that reducing the consumption of meat to three meals a week can help prevent around 45,000 early deaths.

He asked 82 participants to look at photos, some of meat.

The participants were told they could "punish" a colleague if he made a mistake while sorting the pictures. The experts thought the meat pictures would prompt the participants to inflict more punishments.

But they made them calmer and less aggressive. This could be because meat triggers associations of meals with family and friends.

Meat and Milk from Cloned Cows Safe for Consumption: Experts
A panel of experts has suggested meat and milk from cloned cows is safe for consumption.

"It makes sense that our ancestors would be calm, as they would be surrounded by friends and family at meal time. I would like to run this experiment again, using hunting images," the Daily Express quoted Kachanoff, from McGill University, as saying.
